GetAGrip87 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Well fellas, I bent my first Red tonight! I have been doing Ben Edwards "Bending Experiment" and he has encouraged me to try the Red. Ben and Travis M. gave me enough confidence and talked me up enough at the BBB to hit this steel hard today. Lot of horse power for a little guy right Ben? I got pumped up and used the techniques that I saw the top benders at the BBB use and what I over heard Greg Amidon telling another bender. It took me along time to finish it, about 20 freakin' minutes but I didn't give up. 15 minutes of it was trying to get it kinked, by then I was fried and had to fight it to under 2". Finally got The RED!!! Thanks for the encouragement Ben and Travis! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bencrush Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Awesome work Scott! You earned it buddy by sticking to the workout script. Must have been very hard for you at time when you could have run through it a bit faster. Congrats on the FIRST Red! The next will be faster and then cut Reds await.
